TEMPE, Ariz. – Sun Devil softball opened the 2019 Littlewood Classic with a nice win, defeating the Illinois State Redbirds, 6-9, on Thursday afternoon at Farrington Stadium.
"Today was just a different day," head coach Trisha Ford said. "It was rainy and cold in Arizona. I think it is good for us. It is good to throw some things at our team and see how they respond. I am happy with the win, but I still think we could have had some better at-bats, played better defense and thrown some better pitches in certain situations.
